"No guilt here, T. I’m just a drunken fool willing to listen to and share in my brilliant advice." She said, taking a sip of her wine. "OK, so far we have a partner who loves Cara and isn’t quite as alpha at miss Porter. What’s next?"
"Well, not as alpha good, but no alpha, bad. I couldn’t deal with a passive yes girl."
"Duly noted. I will make sure I keep the record tonight accurate."
"Good, accurate record keeping is important. OK, next, well hot wouldn’t be a bad thing. Bette is a hard act to follow, good looks will help, also intelligent and ambitious. Not ambitious like ‘I need to step on everyone and everything’ but more like, ‘I want to do whatever I do well and care if I’m successful’, that sort of ambitious."
Tina stood up and walked over the window to look out over the DC nightscape. Still staring out the window she said, "You know Alice, what I want is someone I can come home to every night, have just as much fun having a family dinner as going out to the club, someone who I love to wake up next to and want just five more minutes in bed each with them to feel them next to me. I want someone who can share in the events of my day I can share in hers. Someone who finds spending time with Cara a benefit of the relationship, not something she tolerates. Someone Cara feels safe with. Someone who loves me and my daughter equally. And when you total all of that up, that’s a big list. And that’s not an easy find. And that’s why I think I might end up alone. That’s a big ask, and I don’t think it’s all that realistic."
Alice walked over Tina, putting her arm on Tina’s shoulder, "You know, TK, it is a big ask. But I don’t understand why you’re so concerned about whether or not you’ll find it, unless I’m mistaken, and we both know I’m never wrong on things like this, you already have that."
Tina turned to look at Alice, "What are you talking about, Al?"
"Duh, T, her name’s Julia, and if I remember correctly, as was speak, she is dutifully taking care of your daughter."
Tina face changed as Alice spoke. It was as though someone had lifted the blinds and suddenly let some light into her mind, for the first time, she was picturing Julia and seeing a woman, not just her friend.

Lucia, you deserve a round of applause for continuing this story since its debut in April, 05. I, for one love this story and am thrilled to know that you will are working on an ending. Great scene with A & T trying to fish out each other’s story over drinking. I am with 25justagirl & capesquad, I would rather see T ending up with “Juwia” just because Julia had shown her constant love and support to T & Cara. Plus T had already said that B did not do equal well. To me, in this case, J & T were better fit. Back to A & D. I hope D could demonstrate to A soon that she was trustworthy and committed. Of course A’s apprehension was with merit after all the heartaches D had given A. I do not blame A for staying away to figure things out. All and all it’s a great day to see you posted. Thank you.
I am so thrilled to see a new chapter from you on this great story!! I love how you have thrown Alice and Tina together. They really are what the other one needs right now. Hopefully Alice will open up to Tina in the next chapter. If they need it, I will send them over a couple more bottles of wine. And I am glad that Dana and Julia are talking. Maybe that will help Dana understand why Alice needs a little space right now. I love that Julia was willing to call Alice back from the DC assignment. “And not for the fun use of handcuffs either” — Hee! Thank you so much for the update, lucia! And, no worries, it was excellently done, as usual!!
Wow. I had given up hope that we would see another chapter. Thanks so much for returning to share your story. Come back soon, OK?
Yay…………. you finally posted!!! I’m just so happy right now…:-D Usually, I’m firm believer that Tina and Bette belong together, but this time I want Tina to end up with Julia. I can’t wait for the next chapter, hopefully there will be more Danish… Thank you for continuing this. Maybe you’ll update “Ghost of Christmas Past” too?
Lucia posted. (does happy saturday morning coffee dance.) Tina is so adorable. Loved the description of her examining each wine bottle one by one to be sure they were empty… You’ve convinced me she and Julia and Cara belong together. Still… i’m wondering about those breakfasts at the planet with Bette some mornings…oh well, what would we do with out some ‘dyke drama’ occasionally? As for ms. Alice… she is the queen of deflection. sigh…. next chapter, right?p.s. what season 5? Was Alice in Season 5?
Wow. What did I do to deserve your story? lol… I’m so happy! I understand Alice needing time. I just wish Alice will realize no matter what happened, Dana’s heart was right there with Alice…. And I really wish that she’ll see that she loves Dana, only Dana. You’ve convinced me about Jule and Tina, seriously. =) Good job. And PPS!!
As I recollect, Lucia, I was part of the judges’ panel that awarded you a prize for this fanfic. After said prize was awarded, it disappeared, pronto. Ditto for LastKid and her fabulous “Tina, Tiny Pieces” and another fic that I loved that was a B&T detective fic. >>You know what I learned from that experience? NO MORE FANFIC AWARDS! They seem to have an inhibiting effect upon the writers. What gives? I’m glad you’re back and I hope you’ll bring Lastkid out of the woodwork with you. I really like this fic a lot and I’m glad you’ve returned to it! Thanks! BTW – I like Julia but Bette all the way for me and Tina. Thanks!
I love it! I just found your story because I just found this amazing website and I read your entire story in two days. In fact, it was very hard to do work because I wanted to read the story. Please post soon. I can’t wait!
